Hi John,
What I noticed is that you, like myself, have a wide range of subject matter interests -
in particular I saw we both have The Change Function, Crossing the Chasm, and Don't Make Me Think
among our books.
You happened to join LibraryThing two days before me!
A book I have recently read a portion of is called Blunder by Zachary Shore.
You might like it given what I see of your interests. Let me know if you read it -
I plan to read more of it during the summer.
(how did Carnophile get the book title to be in italics?)

John - You have an interesting library and I suspect that we will see some more books in common once I make to my history books.
Hi johnclaydon. I see you added me to your "interesting libraries" list. What kicked me over the edge? I'm guessing it was Naked Came the Manatee, lol.

Regards,
Carnophile

Gasping! For! Air! OMG that is priceless!
Ah, I see. Al Stepan does know his stuff -- plus he's a really good speaker.
We're the only two people to pick Moses Finley as a favorite author—we're twins! ;)
